Batman TV

For the first time, DC Comics collects Batman stories originally published between 1948 and 1966 that were adapted into specific episodes of the classic Batman TV series! Starring The Joker, The Penguin, The Riddler and Mr. Freeze (here called "Mr. Zero"), and featuring the debut of Batgirl, these stories have never been collected together before. Collected from BATMAN #53, 73, 121, 140, 169 and 171, and DETECTIVE COMICS #230, 346 and 359.

In 1964, DC Comics enlisted artist Carmine Infantino to introduce the "new look" Batman. As he had with The Flash and Adam Strange before, Infantino came up with a slick, modern look for the series, making the Dark Knight a creature of the shadows once more. These stories and especially their cover illustrations showcase Infantino's powerful design sense, one that influenced DC's cover artwork for years to come. In addition, Batman's many battles against crime in the streets of Gotham City paralleled the action on the 1966 Batman TV series.Collects various issues of DETECTIVE COMICS and BATMAN, plus THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD #183, 190 and 194.

is a four-issue limited series that depicts the origin of Azrael aka Jean Paul Valley, the man who one day would replace Bruce Wayne as Batman and published by DC Comics from October 1992 through January 1993. Otherwise known as the "Prelude to Knightfall." After this 4-issue series Azrael then became a supporting character in the monthly titles, eventually taking over the role of Batman through the , and story arcs. Written by Dennis O'Neil; Art by Joe Quesada and Kevin Nowlan. Dennis O'Neal is perhaps most well known for turning Batman from the campiness of the 1960s TV show, to "The Batman", getting back to the character's darker roots and emphasizing his detective skills. This grimer and more sophisticated Dark Knight, as well as new villians such as Ra's Al Ghul, brought back Batman from the verge of pop culture oblivion. His work would influence later incarnations of Batman, from the seminal comic by Frank Miller, to the movie in 2005. Stands right up there among the best origin tales in the Batman mythos.
